If all falls into place financially I hope to get to Bond In Motion for my Birthday at the end of this month. (Crosses fingers)
I zoomed round the 007 Museum before it closed down in the Lake District back in 2009, so I really want to take my time with this, like the Barbican.
Blueville, cheers for the info in poast 17. - Can you PM me with details of the Filton event? Thanks.
This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

It's awful. Save your money. Even if you take your time, you can see everything in detail while lingering in about 45 minutes.... and that's really lingering.
I wouldn't rate the exhibit "awful" but it certainly does not compare with the Beaulieu version or Designing 007. Still if you were unable to see either of those and it isn't a major financial burden to check this one out, by all means go for it (all the same though, ya, I wouldn't make a special trip; 45 min really is about it).
Went to The Bond in motion last week (TP hint hint) very enjoyable day out ,started the day with a pint or 3 of Guinness
for breakfast then poped into the exhibition , told by bloke on the door "no flash photography" so please excuse picture quality (im no thunderpussy) some staggering facts and figures ,like 19 Astons wrecked for QOS but as ASP9MM said
it will only take 1 hour plus (we walked round twice) so don't plan any big trips to the smoke ,just to see it plan something else too
-{ Nice pics, In the first one I thought you were doing a Banksy.
On a side note many cameras now have a setting for low light which works quite well.
I use a little sony nex3l, which quickly takes six pics and blends them together to give
a great clear low light shot. Although they all look fine. {[]
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
yep im afraid my poor photography doesn't do it justice ,but its no airfix kit its about 5 1/2 feet long
we was just gobsmacked at the skill these guys (MG ) have ,in putting these things together,
I remember feeling like Bond one day, driving along the motorway with a slight
Turn to the right. Then directly in front an army helicopter slowly rose up above
the bushes. it was amazing, and so freaking big, as it moved off over my car. )
60 ft is still impressive, in another sort of movie 8 inches is considered big. )

I felt like Bond once. I was walking to Work whilst smoking a Cigarette and suddenly heard a Noise in the Bushes beside me. This made me quickly turn on my Heels with my right Hand to the Holster that was not there. I have even started to copy Bonds Breakfast Routine! (Eggs, Bacon and Toast) )

I was about 50 minutes, but I was in no hurry
Yeah, sadly not much to see compared to previous exhibits
Some of us will be there the 6th June:

For contrast, here's my visit to the larger installation at Beaulieu:

Apart from AJBers, is there much interest from the public ?
we was just gobsmacked at the skill these guys (MG ) have ,in putting these things together,
The tanker model in TSWLM was over 80 feet long, now that's
What I call a model.
At 1/4 scale, the AgustaWestland is pretty freakin' impressive. It's hanging from the cantilever hoist used to bring all the vehicles into the space.
I went on Day Three and attendance was pretty sparse, but that was a Monday.
Actually, just over 60' ... still not small!
